I sent in my Yggy A2 and had the plus upgrade and also moved to the LIM at the same time. I still have my A2 boards so I can test in the future but I truly missed the sound the Yggy gave me. The music just sounds so realistic. I've been running it since Sunday and I imagine it will only get better the more it's turned on. The pics do not do the plus chassis justice. I find this chassis much nicer looking than the original and I like the flatter design as I have this on my desk below the HPA4/AHB2.

Can you post a picture?

Need to move it back, etc but here is a pic.

Looks like schiit ran out of shiny buttons. Those matte ones look different

 

[NEXTLEVEL5]

Yes, the buttons are definitely matte finish but I actually like how they look with the chassis.

Anyone got the yggy plus upgrade done? if so, what do you think? Is it worth the $500 price point? I am thinking about sending mine in and would love to hear some feedback. I have never been let down by schiit audio, and i honestly think this would be a worthwhile up/sidegrade but any opinion regarding this matter would help me decide.

Thank you

I did it.

Basically, you get:

new case, which looks better and makes it easier to upgrade components
NOS mode
remote control
+2 years warranty

Personally, I always disliked the original YGGY case. It irked me. I'm no longer irked looking at my stack. Also, it finally made it easy for me to switch form LIM to OG and back since I have both sets of boards. I'd been listening to to LIM for quite some time. Now I'm back to OG and preferring it.

YGGY sounds better with the oversampling on, so it comes down to whether a new case and new look and a remote is worth it to you.

FOMO is beginning to set in...
With the carrier services all in a mad scramble with last minute holiday deliveries I'll probably wait until after the new year before sending mine in.

Curious, what has the typical wait time been before being notified that they're ready for you to send yours in after you buy the upgrade?

I purchased on announcement and received an email the same day to send it in.

What are you feeding the Yggy with in this photo please?

 

[NEXTLEVEL5]

I have a usb cable from my pc going into it. On the Hpa4 I have a Norne audio going to the focal Utopia. Yggdrasil outputs to the Hpa4 and signal gets directed to built in headphone amp or Ahb2 amp

 

[supersonic395]

What's better on the Yggdrasil LIM input - the unison USB or the AES/EBU input?

Planning on using the Volumio Rivo streamer, so have the option of both but reading around it seems like AES is the best input if available?

 

[supersonic395]

Just to add, I know with Yggy OG, the SE outputs were gimped - on the LIM, is there any downside going from AES/EBU input on the LIM, to SE outputs?

I will have to test this and get back to you now that I've moved from the OG regular chassis to the LIM plus. But previously as good as the Unison USB sounds the Pi2aes to the AES input sounded better in my setup.

Thank you, much appreciated!!
